[comp.sys.atari.st] QUICK_DB problems

archbold@bluemoon.uucp (Archie Jaszcz) (10/20/90)

        Hi!  I just ftp'd QUICK_DB from atari.archive, extracted it on my 
beloved 1040ST running TOS 1.0 and attempted to run the program.  As it 
turns out the program displays title screen and says that there was error 
opening MAGAZINE.KEY (which didn't come in the *.ARC file) and aborts.

        What is that file?  Is it some sort of keyword (or number) that 
the program compares to it's own and decides whether it's valid?  If the 
program is PD (as it should be since I got it off of atari.archive) why is 
there sucha thing installed?

        Does anybody know what the problem might be?  How about the 
author?
